parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings and seals, or
hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not
use grease.
+Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings,
seals and gaskets when assembling.
+After overhaul, refill the transaxle with new ATF.
+When the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is
drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque converter and ATF
cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under ªChanging A/T Fluidº in the
AT section when changing A/T fluid. Refer to ªChanging A/T
Fluidº, AT-15.
Service Notice or PrecautionsNJAT0247FAIL-SAFENJAT0247S01The TCM has an electronic Fail-Safe (limp home mode). This allows the vehicle to be driven even if a major
electrical input/output device circuit is damaged.
Under Fail-Safe, the vehicle always runs in third gear, even with a shift lever position of ª1º, ª2º or ªDº. The
customer may complain of sluggish or poor acceleration.
When the ignition key is turned ªONº following Fail-Safe operation, O/D OFF indicator lamp blinks for about
8 seconds. (For EXCEPT FOR EURO-OBD; ªSELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITHOUT CONSULT-II)º,
refer to AT-42 and for EURO-OBD; ªTCM SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (No Tools)º, refer to AT-61.)
Fail-Safe may occur without electrical circuit damage if the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions (such
as excessive wheel spin followed by sudden braking). To recover normal shift pattern, turn the ignition key
ªOFFº for 5 seconds, then ªONº.
The blinking of the O/D OFF indicator lamp for about 8 seconds will appear only once and be cleared. The
customer may resume normal driving conditions.
Always follow the ªWORK FLOWº [Refer to AT-71 (Except for Euro-OBD), AT-76 (EURO-OBD).]
The SELF-DIAGNOSIS results will be as follows:
The first SELF-DIAGNOSIS will indicate damage to the vehicle speed sensor or the revolution sensor.
During the next SELF-DIAGNOSIS, performed after checking the sensor, no damages will be indicated.
TORQUE CONVERTER SERVICENJAT0247S02The torque converter should be replaced under any of the following conditions:
+External leaks in the hub weld area.
+Converter hub is scored or damaged.
+Converter pilot is broken, damaged or fits poorly into crankshaft.
+Steel particles are found after flushing the cooler and cooler lines.
+Pump is damaged or steel particles are found in the converter.
+Vehicle has TCC shudder and/or no TCC apply. Replace only after all hydraulic and electrical diagnoses
have been made. (Converter clutch material may be glazed.)
+Converter is contaminated with engine coolant containing antifreeze.
+Internal failure of stator roller clutch.
+Heavy clutch debris due to overheating (blue converter).
+Steel particles or clutch lining material found in fluid filter or on magnet when no internal parts in unit are
worn or damaged Ð indicates that lining material came from converter.
The torque converter should not be replaced if:

3. Disassemble cylinder body.
a. Pry off ring B with suitable pliers, then remove spring cover,
spring and seat.
b. Remove washer, key plate, push rod, O-ring and strut.

c. Remove piston seal.
Be careful not to damage cylinder body.

4. Remove return spring, toggle lever and cable guide.
InspectionNJBR0041CALIPERNJBR0041S01CAUTION:
Use brake fluid to clean cylinder. Never use mineral oil.
Cylinder BodyNJBR0041S0101+Check inside surface of cylinder for score, rust, wear, damage
or presence of foreign materials. If any of the above conditions
are observed, replace cylinder body.
+Minor damage from rust or foreign materials may be eliminated
by polishing surface with a fine emery paper.
Replace cylinder body if necessary.
Torque MemberNJBR0041S0102Check for wear, cracks or other damage. Replace if necessary.
PistonNJBR0041S0103CAUTION:
Piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with emery
paper even if rust or foreign matter is stuck to sliding surface.
Check piston for score, rust, wear, damage or presence of foreign
materials.
Replace if any of the above conditions are observed.

looseness, wear, damage or grease leakage.
YST003
Checking Fluid LevelNJST0012Check fluid level, referring to the scale on reservoir tank.
Use ªHOTº range for fluid temperatures of 50 to 80ÉC (122 to
176ÉF).
Use ªCOLDº range for fluid temperatures of 0 to 30ÉC (32 to 86ÉF).
CAUTION:
+Do not overfill.
+Recommended fluid is DEXRON
TMIII or equivalent. Refer
to MA-20, ªFluids and Lubricantsº.
YST006
YST007
Checking Fluid LeakageNJST0013Check the lines for improper attachment and for leaks, cracks,
damage, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
1. Run engine between idle speed and 1,000 rpm.
Make sure temperature of fluid in oil tank rises to 60 to 80ÉC
(140 to 176ÉF).
2. Turn steering wheel right-to-left several times.
3. Hold steering wheel at each ªlockº position for five seconds
and carefully check for fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Do not hold the steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 15 seconds.
4. If fluid leakage at connectors is noticed, loosen flare nut and
then retighten.
Do not overtighten connector as this can damage O-ring,
washer and connector.
5. If fluid leakage from power steering pump is noticed, check
power steering pump. Refer to ST-25.
6. Check rack boots for accumulation of power steering fluid.

CHECKING REFRIGERANT LEAKS=NJHA0168Preliminary CheckNJHA0168S01Perform a visual inspection of all refrigeration parts, fittings, hoses,
and components for signs of A/C lubricant leakage, damage and
corrosion. Take note of the areas with A/C lubricant leakage to
allow extra time in these areas with electronic leak detector.
SHA705EB
Precautions for Handling Leak DetectorNJHA0168S02When performing a refrigerant leak check, use an A/C leak detec-
tor or equivalent. Ensure that the instrument is calibrated and set
properly per the operating instructions.
The leak detector is a delicate device. In order to use the leak
detector properly, read the operating instructions and perform any
specified maintenance.
Other gases in the work area or substances on the A/C
components, for example, anti-freeze, windshield washer
fluid, solvents and lubricants, may falsely trigger the leak
detector. Make sure the surfaces to be checked are clean.
Clean with a dry cloth or blow off with shop air. Do not allow
the sensor tip of the detector to contact with any substance.
This can also cause false readings and may damage the detec-
tor.
SHA707EA
1. Position probe approximately 5 mm (3/16 in) away from point
to be checked.
